In de zomer van 2023 nam Strukton het emplacement van Leeuwarden op de schop. Het hele emplacement werd vernieuwd en uiteraard werden er meerdere wissels gesaneerd.
Om vervuilde ballast af te voeren werden een aantal MFS'en van Strukton ingezet. Op de foto passeert de van Volker Rail gehuurde 203-4 met het korte treintje Onna opweg vanuit Leeuwarden naar de uiteindelijke eindbestemming Roosendaal. Helaas zou de trein die plaats die dag niet halen. In Zwolle werd er onverhooopt een trap langs het perron geraakt waardoor de trein niet verder kwam dan Zwolle rangeer.

Taken with the Nikon Z 8 w/ Nikkor Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S w/ Z TC-1.4X teleconverter. As you can see it's a fabulous lens, and so light weight I miss it already. However I actually don't think it's that much better than my NIKKOR Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR w/ Z TC-1.4X teleconverter.
The weight factor is a big deal at just over 3 lbs. But even at only 3 lbs. it's still to heavy for an 81 year old fellow that has been beating the stuffings out of myself my whole life.
With, count em' 2 torn rotator cuffs. And if I have to go through that much pain to left my camera and lens, it's hardly anything compared to the pain I've been going through thinking about the pain and suffering I have to endure parting with nearly 5 grand, now that's real pain. If had unlimited funds, I'd keep it in a heart beat.
----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

Vision personal desde la Colegiata de Belmonte de su emblemático castillo.
El castillo de Belmonte es una fortaleza que se eleva en el cerro de San Cristóbal, a las afueras de la villa de Belmonte, al suroeste de la provincia de Cuenca. Fue declarado Monumento histórico-artístico perteneciente al Tesoro Artístico Nacional mediante decreto de 3 de junio de 1931
El castillo de Belmonte es un singular edificio que, por su estado de conservación, por su especial estructura, y por su aspecto exterior, prácticamente el mismo que tuvo en el momento de su construcción, constituye un valioso tesoro patrimonial. Fue construido en la segunda mitad del siglo XV, por orden de don Juan Pacheco, primer marqués de Villena. Era un momento de convulsiones y luchas internas en el Reino de Castilla. El marqués se proponía acumular territorios y construir fortalezas para hacerse fuerte ante los problemas sucesorios que se avecinaban. En 1456, en el cerro de San Cristóbal, se inician las obras de construcción que duraron aproximadamente hasta 1468.
Fue la heredera de la casa de Villena, Eugenia de Guzmán, más conocida como la emperatriz Eugenia de Montijo, la que se encarga de restituir al castillo su esplendor original. Hacia 1857 comenzando las obras de restauración. Restaura las defensas de acuerdo al proyecto inicial, pero en el interior se impone el gusto de la época. Así, el arquitecto Alejandro Sureda realiza los cierres de las galerías que dan al patio, utilizando el ladrillo como material constructivo, el estilo utilizado es el neogótico.Con la caída del imperio francés, en 1870, cesa la restauración.
Actualmente es propiedad de la Casa Ducal de Peñaranda descendientes de la Duquesa de Alba, María Francisca de Sales Portocarrero, hermana de Eugenia de Guzmán, más conocida como Eugenia de Montijo, que fue emperatriz de los franceses por su matrimonio con Napoleón III.
El castillo fue concebido como fortaleza-palacio, para satisfacer por una parte las necesidades defensivas del marqués de Villena, que quiso prepararlo para adaptarlo al avance de la artillería. Por otra parte, tuvo la función de una residencia lujosa, acorde con sus ansias de poder y la influencia de don Juan Pacheco. Sus techumbres gótico-mudéjares y su bestiario gótico compiten con el castillo de la realeza de Segovia.
La planta del castillo es muy peculiar, denominada de "estructura atenazada". Está construida sobre un triángulo equilátero con dos cuerpos en dos de sus lados, y en el otro, la torre del homenaje, triángulo que se convierte en polígono de nueve lados con seis torres en los vértices que forman una estrella de seis puntas. Las torres tienen unos 22 metros de altura. La planta de este castillo en forma de estrella de seis puntas es única en España y en Europa.
El recinto principal se rodea de una barrera artillera de exquisita construcción con cien puntos de disparo, entre troneras y aspilleras, sumando los de su parte baja y alta. Esta barrera tiene tres puertas, denominadas: Puerta del Campo, Puerta de la Villa y Puerta de los Peregrinos. Además consta de tres baluartes. Sus troneras a ras de liza son de cruz y orbe, las de la parte superior son de cruz y palo.
En el interior han de reseñarse las techumbres mudéjares de sus salones y galerías. Sus techumbres y su estructura hacen de este castillo uno de los más emblemáticos de España. Su habitación más importante es la conocida como capilla o sala de embajadores. En ella hay un artesonado mudéjar con mocárabes comparables a los de la Alhambra de Granada o el palacio de la Aljafería de Zaragoza (Subiré fotos de estos interiores y algunos detalles más)
Aparte de servir como residencia de Marqués de Villena y de la emperatriz francesa Eugenia de Montijo, también ha servido como fortaleza en el rodaje del Cid, con Charlton Heston y Sofía Loren.

Among my neighbours is a young man who could best be described as a computer geek. Through him I have explored a whole new world of IT experiences, Virtual Reality among them. Last week I bought a Virtual Reality headset and software. Yesterday he installed and set up my VR device, allowing me to enter a new world of amazing possibilities.
With VR software I can travel anywhere and experience anything from sky diving to white water rafting on the Colorado River. From driving a F1 racing car to diving the Great Barrier Reef, and all without stepping outside my front door.
I shot this brief video of my neighbour interacting with a VR real life setting. My life has been transformed and this is only the first day. Adventure before dementia, that's me, just as described on the label.

Bijna elke nacht wordt er aan de lijn Zwolle-Wierden gewerkt om de lijn te elektrificeren. Hierdoor komt er ook eens een andere diesel op het station van Nijverdal. Aan het begin van februari zijn ze begonnen met het plaatsten van de portalen.
De avond van 4 februari ben ik naar Nijverdal gefietst en daar, na ruim twee en een half uur wachten bij het laatst geplaatste portaal tussen Wierden en Nijverdal, kwam dan eindelijk de VolkerRail 203-2 langs met de ombouwtrein. Tot mijn verbazing reden ze eerst door naar het station van Nijverdal om daar dan kop te maken en dan in de richting van Wierden te gaan werken. Na passage ben ik dus keihard naar het station gefietst, aldaar was ik net op tijd aangekomen op de plek om dit plaatje te kunnen maken. Na een paar minuten vertrokken ze rond de klok van 0:00 weer vanaf het station van Nijverdal om tussen hier en Wierden de portalen te gaan plaatsen.

The resilience of these trees is astounding. They must have stood in the water since the dam was built as there are plenty around the lake. I dare say that, eventually, the water will win.
